Many Britons will be staying at home over the Christmas period to spend time with family and friends nearby.<\/p>\n

However, others will be desperate to get out of this cold country, swapping shivering for sun, sea and sand.<\/p>\n

Leading travel agency company TUI has recommended a fabulous destination in Europe which provides all three – Gran Canaria.<\/p>\n

Gran Canaria is one of Spain’s Canary Islands and is a four hour plane journey from London. If you’re looking to relocate for part of the winter season, it might be the perfect destination for you.<\/p>\n

The travel agency company said: “This Canary Island is one of the UK\u2019s favourite destinations for a winter sun holiday, and for good reason.<\/p>\n

“Temperatures in Gran Canaria sit above 20\u00b0C all year round, making it one of the warmest places to visit in the Canary Islands.<\/p>\n

“Plus, your winter break is only a four-hour flight away, so you can be relaxing on the beach in places like Maspalomas and making a splash in the island\u2019s family-friendly waterparks before you know it.”<\/p>\n

For those who want to do some retail therapy – perhaps even purchase a few Christmas presents – Las Palmas is the ultimate spot.<\/p>\n

TUI also described Gran Canaria as a “world favourite” holiday choice. The travel agency stated: “As far as holiday destinations go, Gran Canaria is part of the world\u2019s vintage collection.<\/p>\n

“The third-largest Canary Island first appeared on the Spain tourism radar as far back as the 19th century, and it\u2019s gone from strength to strength ever since.”<\/p>\n

Gran Canaria has something for everyone, whether you’re after a lazy holiday where you rarely move from your sun lounger, or a huge party scene.<\/p>\n
